The Sand Queen's Ceremony ala Dreamtime



Dear World,

I have just returned from Dreamtime. It is now moving time and on to Denver.

The beautiful 28 foot triangle screen rendered inadequately in the photo to the left was built by an amazing group of people that I am proud to work with. The screen was used as a projection surface for our performance at Dreamtime this year.

Here is a small gallery of images that I ended up with that.

Well World, I hope all is well.

The Sand Queen is Here



Dear World,

I am currently directing a show that opens this Saturday.



Here is a digital media story about The Sand Queen authored by Kurt Lancaster.

Here is a news paper article about The Sand Queen and Penumbra.

I hope to see you there.

Happy Birthday Miss Pouty Pants



Dear World,

I just finished this drawing tonight. It is a late birthday present for a friend.

It is based on the hearts she wears on the back of her arms.
It is also based on her request for aliens.

PS
I did this randomly and found it highly rewarding.

Everyone is Dark Inside



Dear World,

Though everyone perhaps is dark inside literally, I don't think metaphorically everyone is dark inside.

This is a piece of video art that Stacey and I created for Paul DeMarte of Sad Planet and Doubts Even Here fame.

Take with a grain of salt, and wait for 'pay off' at the end.

I have always enjoyed the warping of perspective and reality this piece pulls off.

Waiting For Rain



Dear World,

This is a music video that I created for Sad Planet a while ago.

This video represents my first dabbles in 3D animation.

Kick back and just enjoy the Eye Candy.

If you like this music video, you should also check out "Welcome To My Psychedelic World" a music video I created for ATP out of Tokyo Japan.

Power Stilts



Dear World,

I have always been impressed by people that can fly.

This is a short 'calling card' for a professional acrobat that I filmed and edited.

The shot where he flys over the camera, was interesting to say the least.

Can you fly?

My Mother's Art

Dear World,

My mother recently recreated "Angel's Arms" in her own medium.

This is an image of the piece in progress.

I really like the detail that she has added.

I also enjoy how the single 'angel' image that I intended, has been interpreted as two 'angel' forms.

Apparently most people see two forms in "Angel's Arms"

How many forms do you see?

I like the idea of UFO's.

Here is a photo that I took of one.

A Day In Color City



Dear World,

Enter Color City v2.0

After creating the last Color City animation, I was inspired to try and increase the complexity of the animation, as well as develop more of a narative.

So, what do you think?
